Brasserie Houyoux was founded in 1899 by Maurice Houyoux in Nalinnes (Haies). It was located at [https://goo.gl/maps/BwyYLE4tUTN2 Rue Docteur Paul Maître 15-17.] The brewery was also known as "La Nalinnoise" and produced Gueuze-Lambic. Maurice Houyoux was succeeded by Georges Houyoux-Mommens, who won a bronze medal at the Worlds Fair in 1900. At the turn of the 20th century, the brewery went through a period of flourishing prosperity before WWI, which then effectively ceased it's operations from 1914-1918. After the war, the brewery re-opened under the Piron family, and continued until 1924. The buildings are still standing today, and have been converted into apartments.
